Allseas awards First Subsea a supply contract

Allseas has awarded First Subsea a contract for the supply of a 42 in. Ballgrab pipeline recovery tool (PRT) for the Sur de Texas-Tuxpan pipeline project. This pipeline is a 700 km subsea gas pipeline that will interconnect with the Nueces-Brownsville pipeline and the Tuxpan-Tula pipeline.

First Subsea’s PRT has been specifically designed and constructed in a modular manner, accommodating different pipe specifications and permitting various pigging, dewatering and sealing scenarios.

Ballgrab PRTs were first used in 1994 and have been supplied for over 125 major projects worldwide.

“It’s great to be working with Allseas again, especially on this prestigious project,” says Phil Day, Proposals Manager, First Subsea.
